German term

Bäuerlichkeit

German to English Bus/Financial Agriculture consumer trends
"Besonders in Österreich, aber auch in Deutschland und der Schweiz prägen **Bäuerlichkeit** und Regionalität das Marketing der Landwirte und der Lebensmittelindustrie."

Would "small-scale, family-run farms" be an option?

Many thanks in advance for your input!

Many thanks to all for your wonderful suggestions!

@TonyTK Well, join the club! We got to see all the Humphrey Bogart films in the cinema!
TonyTK Mar 26, 2015:
@Ramey Both, unfortunately.
Ramey Rieger (X) Mar 26, 2015:
@TonyTK I apologize for the unintentional plagarism! I merely skimmed the discussion this morning and didn't see your 'home grown' suggestion.
As to Dr. Zhivago - book or film?

In Österreich: ein sehr idyllisches Landleben Hier wird viel für einheimische Produkte geworben und die Landwirtschaft gerne als sehr sauber mit glücklichen Tieren (z.B. lachenden, rosigen Schweinchen) und strahlenden Menschen (alles schmeckt so lecker, ist so gesund, so natürlich hergestellt, etc.) dargestellt - vor einiger Zeit las ich einen Artikel, der ausdrücklich darauf hinwies, wie wirklichkeitsfremd dieser Werbung ist. Tonys "home-grown goodness" trifft den Ton, den "rustic charm" (Antwort von Michael Martin) finde ich auch passend. Dt Werbung für landwirtschaftliche Produkte habe ich schon lange nicht mehr gesehen.
Ramey Rieger (X) Mar 26, 2015:
pastoral produce/home grown produce The image I see are farmers producing foods for regional consumption. It's a bucolic image, full of homeliness, trust and honesty.
TonyTK Mar 25, 2015:
Smallholders? ...
TonyTK Mar 25, 2015:
This is the first time I've ... ... ever seen the word "rusticity", and I'm old enough to remember Doctor Zhivago. Maybe I'm just a bit rustic myself. I like the asker's own "famlly-run farms". Smacks of home-grown goodness and stout, ruddy-faced men with hoes.

Sehr frei ... ... aber vielleicht eine Möglichkeit: attachment to their native soil
Diana Obermeyer Mar 25, 2015:
I really like rusticity I also agree that it's not so much about the activity, but the connotations - you see what you get, the real thing, no fuss, quality, no short cuts, made to last, practical, traditional, hardy, simple, honest... I think rusticity sums that up very well.

farming culture Maybe would take a descriptive approach...
Armorel Young Mar 25, 2015:
Or even "rusticity" I'm thinking along the same lines as Edwin - it's not about the stuff really coming from small-scale, family-run farms but about farmers and the food industry wanting to give the impression of the rural idyll. As Edwin says, it's marketing.
Edwin Miles Mar 25, 2015:
You can probably use something based on "rural"... e.g. rural values, rural images (it's marketing, after all).

After: Menschen haben heute ein neues Bewusstsein für die Zusammenhänge und Effekte ihres Konsums: Werte wie Sicherheit, Nähe, Gesundheit, Authentizität, Fairness, Verantwortung und eine intakte Natur werden nicht mehr „isoliert betrachtet“, sondern verweben sich zu einer ganzheitlichen Perspektive.
Veronika Neuhold (asker) Mar 25, 2015:
Before: Regionalität, Natürlichkeit und Transparenz sind die entscheidenden Themen einer zukunftsfähigen Landwirtschaft. Wünsche und Befürchtungen von Konsumenten müssen ernst- und wahrgenommen werden. [...]

Trotz Finanzkrise hat der faire und regionale Konsum immer mehr an Bedeutung und Zuwachs gewonnen. Über 80 % der damals Befragten gaben an, genauso viel oder sogar mehr Geld für biologische, regionale, fair gehandelte oder klimafreundlich hergestellte Produkte auszugeben als vor der Wirtschaftskrise. Das zeigte die in Deutschland durchgeführte Otto Group Trendstudie von 2011. Auch die Bio-Branche zeigt ein deutliches Wachstum. [...]

Damit haben sich die Anforderungen an Marken, Produkte und Unternehmen in den letzten Jahren massiv geändert. Konsumenten wünschen sich verantwortungsvolle Marken, und soziale Aspekte gewinnen an Bedeutung.

What does it say before and after this?

rustic appeal (charm) of farm life

I am afraid, I have to make a few assumptions and add a few words to make sense of this in English.. but perhaps somebody has an idea how to whittle this down a bit more..

"Especially in Austria, but also in Germany and Switzerland, food industry and farmer marketing leans heavily on the rustic appeal (charm) of farm life and a sense of regional pride.
Peer comment(s):

agree Diana Obermeyer : I liked Armorel's suggestion in the discussion, and this is definitely a smooth improvement of it. I think that really hits the tone.

No politics, no agenda, just good, honest farming.

We have already had victories with shops banned from selling GM food- now we need to make it clear once and for all that good, honest farming is the best way forward.

The comma between 'good' and 'honest' is debatable.

good honest [noun] = honest-to-goodness [noun]

home grown naturalness

Hi there Veronika!
Here's one idea dashed off in a hurry. Hope it helps!

The marketing strategies of farmers and food industrialists especially in Austria, but also in Germany and Switzerland, are based predominantly on home grown naturalness and regionality.
